288 ILLEGAL ALIENS FOUND IN PHOENIX

Police have discovered 4 smuggling drop-houses in the last week

One troublesome story told by the Arizona Republic,
"A few hours later, Phoenix police discovered 33 more undocumented immigrants being held inside a house at 4423 N. 32nd St. after a woman called police to report that smugglers had taken her baby. The woman told police she had gone to the house to pay a $1,400 smuggling fee for her mother, but smugglers demanded an additional $700. When she left to try to get the money, the smugglers took her baby as collateral, Ahr said. The baby was returned unharmed."
